I wrote it in C, and I wanted to implement some other functionality, but unfortunately I’m out of space(of course if I would want to, I can put there ATtiny4313, which is identical to ATtiny2313, but has 4k of memory). …

ATtiny2313 – Based thermostat project update. I wrote a small test firmware for it to test if everything is wired up the right way and to test it’s current consumption. And it turns out that there were some mistakes.. Also it’s current consumption is well below 150mA that I was expecting.

In this followup video I’ll show some problems that I encountered with my power supply from the previous tutorial video and will show you how I fixed those. It shows that even with the simplest project where “nothing can go wrong” you can’t predict every problem that could happen.
